Description

Each year, St. Nicholas Orthodox Church located in Cohoes, NY holds a semi-annual flea market/craft fair on our cemetery grounds in Boght Corners next to Guptill's Arena.  Our flea market/craft fiar is well-known and draws thousands of patrions throughout the our area and beyond.

Our first flea market/craft fair of the season will occur Saturday, May 11th, the day before Mother's Day.  This year, we are adding a special raffle to honor Mother's Day.  We are asking vendors to donate merchandise that will be raffled off that day with a value of $250 or more.  Equally, we will accept minimal donations of $50 that would be package with other similar contributions (ex: Dinner gift certificates would be package as "Dinner with Mom" raffle item).  Fifty(50) percent of the proceeds from this raffle will go to support St. Andrew's Camp (a diocesan camp for children located near Syracuse, NY) and the remaining proceeds will go to support our special church projects.

For those organizationns willing to donate, we will promote your business during the day by signage and also by announcements over our loudspeaker.  Should you deem this a worthy cause, please contact Theresa Mailloux by email (tmailloux518@aol.com) or the church email (stnicholaschurchcohoes@gmail.com).
